Daybeds are generally used for sleeping during the daytime (as the name suggests). However, daybeds also differ from standard beds in that daybeds are commonly used as a sofa, making them ideal for use in living rooms, family rooms, dens, and bedrooms. However, because of this rather thin definition, many may still confuse a daybed with a Futon. Daybeds generally do not transform from couch to bed like a futon, and are more decorative than a futon as well, utilizing accessories such as covers, skirts, throw pillows, and comforters.

Daybeds are either made up of iron, metal or a mixture of both, and wood. An affordable daybed coupled with a trundle mattress, is convenient and will allow for extra sleeping space. For the sake of easy storage, a trundle mattress normally remains underneath the daybed. Another good thing about these daybeds is that kids can access it easily by pulling out and pushing in when necessary.
